Why is a parkway called a parkway if you actually don't run around in grass and swing on swings?

I'm curious to see what people here think of the new/upcoming Wii U. Personally, the fact that Nintendo would produce an unwanted system, undoubtedly for moneymaking purposes only; as evidenced by the slew of well-selling games' sequels being produced solely for it, and the fact it only has one significant difference from the Wii- that remote with the screen- bothers me greatly. (I have the same issues with the 3DS.) I don't know, maybe I'm being overly pedantic? What do y'all think? Let's get a discussion rolling.

I have only one thing to say: The fuss that people (many of whom have blatantly never used or played one* ) make about the Wii U, and earlier the 3DS, is indicative of one of the problems with modern gaming - people are too interested in being tribal and being gullible about what the press and other gamers who got it from the press tell them to think about playthings and companies that make playthings, and not interested at all in the one thing that's actually important and worthwhile: Playing games. *The big indicator is most often parrotting what they've been told to think, which is, for whatever it's worth, completely inaccurate - actually using the machines concerned shows them to be completely distinct... I'm really glad that I cut the cancer that is the gaming press and its ilk out of my leisure-time some years ago, but it does make infuriating reading to see it regurgitated. I would recommend that all try just playing what they like and not worrying about what they're being told to think - it's much more fun that way. EDIT: I should point out, the Wii U has been out for almost a year, now. EDIT 2: Re-reading, I see that I've probably come off sounding a bit harsh. I should explain why: The fact that the games industry and its press are nowadays pretty corrupt is an enormous bugbear to me, and it drives me nuts to see them leveraging people to unknowingly further their agenda.

Wii U unwanted? Check out Nintendo 2DS. It is basically 3DS but without 3D option I don't hate neither of systems, but I think 2DS is much more unwanted then Wii U.
